Hey wow. Um. Last chapter really, really, really, really sucked. And I'm
really, really, really, really sorry about it. It was extremely short and,
well, crappy. I may even rewrite it when I'm done with this story. I made
Sesshoumaru too nice. He's really not like that. Again, I'm really sorry.
Please don't kill me. I promise this chapter will be better. Man what is
wrong with me? I cant seem to write anything good. I'll figure it out (but
in the meantime I hope I don't ruin this story).
Well here's my shot at chapter seven.
"Sesshoumaru-sama! Sesshoumaru-sama!"
Sesshoumaru looked up in annoyance upon hearing Jaken's voice. The little green youkai came dashing around the corner of Satsuna's house.
Sesshoumaru had been back there speaking with Mika. He usually wouldn't speak with any other human, besides Satsuna, but Mika was speaking with him about Matenue.
"What is it Jaken?" Sesshoumaru looked down his nose at the toad-like creature.
Mika had disgusted look upon her face.
"Sesshoumaru-sama! Rin has gotten hurt!"
"Where is she?" Sesshoumaru asked, keeping his voice calm and collected.
"She is out by the center of the village"
Jaken meant the village hall.
"She is with those disgusting humans" Jaken said out loud, while glancing with fear at Mika to make sure she wasn't going to do anything.
"Hey! I'm one of those disgusting hu- I mean humans, so-" Sesshoumaru did not hear the rest, as he was off running towards Rin's scent, leaving Jaken to Mika's mercy.
When he got to her, Rin was on the floor crying. Sesshoumaru stood over her and asked what happened.
"She fell off her horse," Kadul said pointing to a black mare standing by a tree some forty feet away.
Satsuna and several of the other villagers were sitting by Rin's side trying to comfort her.
"Its okay, honey. You'll be okay. I know it wasn't fun, but you'll be okay." Satsuna said.
Sesshoumaru bent down and picked the child up. She immediately stopped crying, and he walked off.
While walking towards Satsuna's house Sesshoumaru ran into Matenue. He glared at his new found, human rival and was about to walk on when the foolish man stopped him.
"My god, what did you do to that poor child?" he asked in a mocking tone of concern.
"It has nothing to do with you," Sesshoumaru answered. He really didn't want to get into a battle with Matenue right now, because of Rin, but he was ready to if this man decided to push him.
"It has a lot to do with me. I should know if some helpless child is being abused. Especially by you. I need to show this town what you really are."
Sesshoumaru was ready to kill this man, but Rin moved in his arms and he remembered she was there. He began to walk off again.
"Hey, don't walk off on me!" Matenue said in a threatening tone.
This was too much for Sesshoumaru. How dare this puny human threaten him.
"Do you want me to kill you? I have no problem with killing pests like you," he said menacingly, walking up to Matenue and growling in his face.
Matenue held his ground and said, "you go ahead and do that. Satsuna will never forgive you for it. You would have to leave."
"Do you think I care about that pitiful human? She is nothing to me you fool. The only reason I do not kill her is the fact that she saved Rin's life." Sesshoumaru said with a sneer in his voice. He didn't know why but it hurt him deeply to say this.
"Fine with me. Looks like she's mine." With that Matenue walked off.
Sesshoumaru glared after him then kept walking towards Satsuna's house.
"Sesshoumaru -sama?" Rin asked, later that evening.
"What?"
"Can Rin sleep with you tonight? You know like Rin did when you and her slept outside." The little girl looked hopefully up at Sesshoumaru, from her seat next to him on the porch.
"Do what you want" he answered.
"Thank you Sesshoumaru-sama!" she exclaimed giving the pitiless youkai a hug, and running off to play with Kadul.
Sesshoumaru went back to his musings. He had been thinking about Matenue. He found out that Matenue used to live in the village. He had always been in love with Satsuna, and everyone had thought that they would someday get together. He was going to ask her to marry him but he had found out that his mother, who lived extremely far away, was dying. He went to her, and when he didn't come back everyone assumed that he was dead.
Mika had said that Satsuna was heartbroken. Although she would never tell the village, it had been easy to see in the way she did things. She had been slower and didn't seem to care as much. Sometimes she would be found crying and would make up dumb excuses, like losing her bandanna. Everyone knew that she had loved him and that her heart had broken when he died, but now that he was back everyone was certain that they would go back to their old ways.
Sesshoumaru didn't understand why it hurt so much to think about this. He was now used to not understanding things. Ever since he had come to this village things began to get confused. It was the pain that he couldn't take. He wanted it gone, but it seemed that there was only one thing, well actually, only one person that could take it away.
"Satsuna" he breathed.
It seemed now, though, that he would never find relief from his pain. Satsuna belonged to someone else. He no longer tried to deny it. He knew what he felt for her, but that didn't mean he understood it. He still wanted to hold her, to breathe in her scent. To just be able to call her his. Why did he feel like this? The pain would ease a little when ever her scent came to his nose, but it was never enough. 'If I leave now would I forever have this pain?' he asked himself. He really didn't know, but he hoped not. He would be leaving soon and he would never come back. That was it.
He watched Rin tag Kadul then shriek as her friend began to chase her.
Maybe he would leave Rin. She would be safe here in this village and she would be surrounded by her own kind. He smiled to himself. About a month ago he would have been disgusted to even think of leaving Rin here with her own kind, but this village had changed him. He still hated humans, but some of them were better then others, and of course there was that one who he saw as an equal.
Suddenly he sensed something coming at him. He quickly grabbed it and saw that it was a small pebble. He looked behind him and found Yuka standing there.
"I'm sorry Mr. Sesshoumaru, but my dad said that you could sense anything coming at you and I didn't believe him. So I came here and tested it. But I guess my dad was right." She said smiling but then the smile faded, "what's wrong, Mr. Sesshoumaru?" she asked.
"Nothing," he said turning to look in Rin's direction. It was late now and he expected her to want to go to bed very soon.
"Yes something's wrong," Yuka argued getting in Sesshoumaru's face. "I promise I won't tell anyone what it is"
He looked at her. Sesshoumaru knew that she would keep on pestering him until he told her. He was about to give up now and tell her when Rin popped up from out of nowhere.
"Sesshoumaru-sama I'm tired can we go to bed now?"
Sesshoumaru picked up the little girl, and silently thanking her, began to walk inside.
"I was just worried about Rin," he lied to Yuka over his shoulder.
Deciding that that was an okay reason to look the way he had, Yuka grabbed Kadul's hand, telling her little cousin that she would walk her home.
Um hi. Well I hope this chapter is better then the last one. Matenue is an ass isn't he? Well I need to tell you guys something. I have a story to recommend. Its by Foureyedbookworm, and its called The Course of True Love Ne'er Did Run Smooth. It's a really good story and I think that you guys should read it.
Well anyway please review this chapter and tell me what you think.
Well here's my shot at chapter seven.
